Did you know your body composition is crucial to back health as you age? 💡

Strength training to build lean muscle and maintaining a healthy weight are essential for keeping your back strong and pain-free as you age! 🙌 Check out this infographic for more tips on healthy exercise! https://bit.ly/3kbu22X
